All Brock University graduate and undergraduate teaching assistants are invited to participate in the following professional development. These sessions are open to teaching assistants, seminar leaders, marker graders and lab demonstrators.

Join us for discussions about the trials and triumphs of teaching in the Canadian classroom. These sessions are for international TAs who want to learn more about teaching and learning in a Canadian University, and the Brock seminar system. You will learn practical hands-on strategies for teaching, dealing with conflict in your seminar, how to promote a positive learning environment, best practices for marking, time management, and helping your students study effectively. The 20+ workshops offered provide you with a variety of topics to choose from. You can also earn a TA certificate in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education as evidence of your professional development.
